There is lot of looking down on Ashley going on at ET. It wasn't her who brought Spitzer down. She is just a girl. It is turning into a lucky break for her and if she is wise (and she may not be) she will keep all the money she now makes to set herself up in life. :)

This is garbage. Here is just another conspiracy fantasist. And he is great big fatso as well. :)

Top traders are few really and they don't have giant setbacks or blowups. Blowups and big f**k-ups are for dickheads. The lesson for losers is get out before you sink any more cash into something at which either you are reckless or if not you are just not an expert. :)

Aren't ET threads jusy so full of panic and panic mongers? All this talk over years about beating the herd and taking their money when trading. You are the herd, choking with idiot panic and blustering irrationality. Bernanke is doing two things; providing continuing liquidity where needed...

There is no public loss on interest paying short term liquidity loans from the Fed. :)

There is no 'brutal' at all - save what you deliberately do to yourself. Think of lots and lots of soft cuddly pussycat points of net profit for yourself. The YM today, Tues 3/11/08, going up/down and repeating, had 29 'legs' of 15 or more points - most were sizeable with some 'biggeys' such...

"Start spreading the news I'm leaving today I want to be a part of it, New York, New York These vagabond shoes Are longing to stray And make a brand new start of it New York, New York I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap These...

The fear of trading edge becoming inefficient? The market for a serious professional player is about making yourself rich - sooner not later. Its not about prolonging some idiot treadmill of so-called 'making a living from trading'. :)

The better rule is don't trade until you know enough not to make losses. How do you do that? Preparation, dedication and devotion. It is not smart to be a clown. To play in the market you need to know so much that you do know when to prevent or stop trades that lose. There is a...

Let me inject some every day facts. The YM, Mon 2/25/08, had 37 'legs' of over 15 points, following each other in sequence. That is a gigantic offering of points in one day. Some of those 'legs' can be very big point scorers but they don't need to be. And do you know what, those gyrations are...

How little people know about themselves. Signs of who we are and our achievements are central to human civilization. The species, human kind, is a 'parading' animal. Through cars, houses, boats, clothes, prizes and much else the 'parading' need is worked all the time by almost all people...

My suggestion is, if you are not making any real progress and if you do not have a reliable methodology, that you stop trading until you do. Daytrading, you should take away a net profit daily. Net losses on any one day tell you only one thing; you are no way successful enough. You must have...

Intraday fast downward phases are definitely good - just as intraday fast upward phases are good. But by trading upmoves and downmoves as they follow in sequence, Open through to Close, you are always the correct way round for a very fast tear in one direction or the other. It is a curious...

Some long while back I know I referred to BO's on trendlines/channels as triggers. However BO's can be timely or too slow. Over the length of the market day open to close, they are not good enough as a sole operating system, assuming of course that you are utililzing the natural gyrations of...

West Texas Intermediate crude (CL) offers wide volatility daily as has the DOW (YM) in recent months. This all a day trader needs for a great month this month and every month. Play the daily gyrations. Now you may wish to call them undulations, oscillations, mini-trends or just dear old...

The major interest rate reductions by the Fed have been instituted to mitigate the banking and credit crisis. The stocks and futures markets are a secondary consideration. You will see from many on ET and often at large that this has not been fully understood. Nor does the Fed want to spread...

Duref Mudgins = Sigmund Freud This is a one of the sock puppet aliases of the clown who is the same author of many sock puppet names he uses on ET. :)

The Report into the Northen Rock bank failure "criticized Bank of England Governor Mervyn King for failing to act in August when the European Central Bank made extra funds available in an attempt to stop credit markets from freezing up. King had told the (UK parliamentary) committee last year...

Another unrealistic jumble. Sweet. I note too that logic and focus are absent.

My criticism was of Ron Paul's ramble. Bernanke rightly did not attempt any serious reply to Ron Paul's jumble of generalities. It is inflation at a fairly modest rate, year on year, which erodes the real value of the dollar and the value of other currencies in their own countries. The dollar...
